ONE OF THE BEST THINGS OUT

With the advent of the New Year there
always comes TO the desk of the editor
something new, useful or unique in the
shape of some invention or discovery, or
something which will amuse and divert
while it conveys instruction. or such
character is the sterling novelty which lies
before lis in the shape Of Counter. Wrap
per-Pad, (12xS 1-2 inches) for the counter
use of druggists and dealers in medicine.
Glancing at the sheets which to large
number are adhesively joined at one end,
we find they comprise humorous sketches
from the rich and racy pens of "Bih Nye"
and other talented and well known "funny
men," finely illustrated in the broadest style
Of the comic art. AT once the design is
manifest and most pleasing. One can
imagine with what facility and pleasure a
dealer can handle such an ornament to his
counter, while at the same time it must
give delight to his customers, free of all
expense to himself, As a wrapper to a
parcel each bears in graceful lettering his
name and place of business. 1t is hardly
necessary to add that it is gotten out by The
Charles A. Vogeler Company, Baltimore,
Nd, and is being distributed freely to their
patrons in trade. 1t is another proof of the
well-carned reputation of the remedies
manufactured by that house and another of
its ingenious methods of spreading the story
of the wonderful cures wrought by St.
Jacobs Oil. In verse and alliterated lines
another story is told of an equally famous
and ehicacious remedy--Red Star Cough
Curc--which has been shown by the analy-
sis of the most distinguished chemists to be
free from opates and poisons; the cost of
which is only twenty-five cents, The pad
will doubtless be very much in demand and
as it deserves should justly become most
popular as one of the best things out.

The Fair One With Golden Locks
BY MRS. CHARLOTTE NJ. STANLEY.


They called her SO when at only seven
years old, the golden fleece of sunny, SHIN
mering hair fell ike n glittering mantle over
plump and dimplcd shoulders half way to
the ground; and ten years later when the
wealth of living gold was bound and coiled
in shining masses like crown round a
young maiden's proud and shapely head,
the woman still retained the maine that had
been given the child.
An only child ard heiress. At least il
was so believed until that seventeenth year.
Her golden crown was thought to be but
a small portion of the wealth that should
fall to Goldie Winnings portion in the due
course of nature and of time, for Willow
dale, her fathers fine estate with its rich
revenues, broad acres and fair farms
whose should it be but hers?
Mr.. Vinng had inherited it lin place of
his eldest brother, lost at seal, three years
after Goldie's birth lie had been Doorand
struggling man and wealth had fallen upon
him, from an uncle's hands, suddenly and
unexpectedly.
Fifteen years he held and used it, and
thought it securely his own, and then just
as suddenly it took to itself wings and fed
away from him and his forever.
In other words the long-lost heir came
home.
James Vining was not dead-had not
been drowned.
In a far-otf land, among strange scenes
and strangers, he had lived life OF struggle
and adventure; nor ever heard of the for
tune that awaited him at home, until hav
/ ing prospered and grown rich abroad, hi
returned, without warning, like a ghos
from the grave, to claini his fair inheritance
of Willowddle!
His return was lis brothers death-blow
had there been love and kindness to softer
the stern reverse Of fortune il would still
have been hard to bear. but James an,
Henry Nining, though bound by ties o
blood, were never friends; ii was into th
hands of an enemy that hard fate bad
Henry surrender his weallh-the futu
welfare of his wife and only child!
The man sank down beneath the blow
lost hold on courage, hope, health, life
One year after James Vining took posses
sion of Willowdale, Henry was in hi
grave,
Then came The old, old, sad story! Hi
widow and Goldie, poor pet, proud, I'M
willing to parade their altered fortunes be
fore world whose cold pity would insul
and wound, not heal, their sorrows,shranl
silently from knowledge and notice Of thei
summer-day friends, passed out Of sigh
and thought, ana were forgotten:
